Start organising for freeThe original Tamashii: Chronicle of Ascend, designed by Kamil Ciesla, Lukasz Wlodarczyk, and Robert Plesowicz, sits at 8.1 on BoardGameGeek and earned praise for its rich setting and roguelike campaign structure. Players explored a cyberpunk Japan, raiding networks and battling an oppressive AI called Ascend. The Final Amendment continues that story with a new campaign and refined mechanics.
What makes the system stand out is the Class and Body pairing. Each player picks a Class (determining their abilities) and a Body (their physical form), and you can swap between them during the campaign. Fans of Altered Carbon will recognise the "sleeve" concept. Exploration uses a tile-laying system similar to Betrayal at House on the Hill, where the map builds out as you play, keeping every session unpredictable.

Set up your group for freeAwaken Realms has built its reputation on ambitious, miniatures-heavy games. Nemesis, their semi-cooperative sci-fi horror hit, remains one of the most acclaimed thematic games of the past decade. Tainted Grail, ISS Vanguard, and a recent Agricola Special Edition (which raised over EUR5 million on Gamefound) round out a publisher that has collectively raised over $40 million through crowdfunding.
The Standard Edition starts at EUR59 with standees, while the Special Edition at EUR95 swaps them for full miniatures. Based on Awaken Realms' track record, expect stretch goals to add content throughout the campaign. If you have been looking for a cooperative campaign game with genuine cyberpunk flavour, this one deserves a look. Rally the group and find a game night near you.
